Billings looked great against Essedon and I was wondering if 200k is too expensive for a guy whi has scores of 14 and 101? In my opinion he is better than Lloyd and Robertson for js and points but he is 100K more is he worth it or should I go with Lloyd?

Cripps is kind of the same but I may be a bit bias as I am a Carlton supporter but when he was playing Melbourne he seemed to go in and get hes own ball!

are they vest candidates and are they too risky?

Should I go with Lloyd (if fit) and Robertson?

I also loved Billings' game on saturday night, but someone like Crouch is better value.

As a Blues fan, I haven't seen enough from Cripps. Mick plonked him in the forward pocket though. With Curnow, Judd, and now Bell out for at least a month, he has good JS. But he's pretty expensive. I have to get rid of Ellis, it will be for Billings or Robbo. Probably the latter.

As long as he continues to play like he did the other night, I'd say Robbo's JS is just about as good as Cripps and Billings' JS. At least for the next few weeks anyway, will be interesting to see what happens when Beams becomes fully fit (if that is ever possible  :-\ ). And he's obviously a fair bit cheaper than both of these guys.

Billings I'd say is too expensive, although his JS would have to be a fair bit better than Lloyd's. Although the 100k or so saved is the difference between getting someone like Jelwood or Fyfe in your mids.

Robbo and Lloyd for me, but if you're not worried with forking out the extra cash for Billings, I'd take him over Lloyd.

If you get Cripps Anthonyyyy be sure to trade the right one in. ;)

Yes.

Cutler, Robertson and Lloyd are all good cheaper options.

Cripps isn't too expensive in my opinion. Should get gametime at the blues and if he can pump out some 70's like he did in his first game he can make good money. Most people will probably bring in Robertson instead but I wouldn't write cripps off at this stage.

No brainer IMO. Robbo and Lloyd. Cripps didn't do enough and Billings is too expensive for a F7/F8
